Re: Cohibas at CVS Pharmacy

I'd imagine they were rather dry

Re: Cohibas at CVS Pharmacy

yeah i've tried these. They're not bad but the only problem is that the stores dont keep them in humidors. The RH here is around 71 so it's not that big of a deal.

Re: Cohibas at CVS Pharmacy

Unless I am wrong, they are usually 'baked' and don't need to be in a humidifier...I have kept tins in my golf bag and even after many months they are the same...

Re: Cohibas at CVS Pharmacy

The Macanudo minis are pretty decent little smokes. I tend to buy a pack of them when I'm going bar-crawling with my friends. They are small enough that I can light them like cigarettes instead of cigars, which is a great bonus. That and no cutter required...so it's super easy to carry light that way.

I do like them humid though...about 70%...it helps them burn slower and cooler, which makes them a bit more enjoyable to me.

Re: Cohibas at CVS Pharmacy

Yeah, I've noticed these things at Walgreen's. Two cigars that should only be sold at Walgreen's

Re: Cohibas at CVS Pharmacy

I don't buy anything from behind the counter here, since our RH normally ranges from 5-15%.

Re: Cohibas at CVS Pharmacy

These are cigarellos...they are fine to smoke cigarette dry. You can humidify them if you want, but it won't change the flavor any, just how the burn.

Re: Cohibas at CVS Pharmacy

They weren"t bad at all, the Cohiba's even had a piece of cedar in it...I definately believe that they will do when you're out late and in need of a cigar but can't stomach the usual drug store crap. Since I'm on nights right now they do just fine when I don't wanna wake the wife up to get into the humi....
